    9.3x62 Cutting Edge 200gr Raptor?

    Hello, In my humble opinion, you shouldn’t go below 240 grains—a .93 will always be a heavy bullet, and that’s the appeal of this ammunition: you can boost this caliber for North American and European game to 250 grains with good velocities. I use only Brenneke TOG 247-grain rounds in four...

    Custom Winchester model 70 CF SS safari 35 Whelen

    1/10 of a MOA at 100 yards is truly exceptional for both the rifle and the shooter – well done!

    Your favorite scope for 338 Win Mag..

    Hello I highly recommend a Leica Magnus 1-6.3x24 scope, which allows you to shoot quickly with both eyes open at 1x magnification. If you really want to shoot at long range, its removable turret covers let you adjust the scope according to your shooting tables. I have several Zeiss and Leica...

    My favorite Hunting rifle 338wm - what is yours?

    Hello, I have a lot of traditional rifles, Sauer, Heym, but I wanted a specific rifle to shoot farther than my 9.3x62s. Influenced by American shooters, I searched Google and came up with the best combination in .338, namely: a Lothar Walter 24-inch barrel, top-quality match-grade Terminus...

    Rigby PH or Parkwest 404 Jeffery?

    https://www.recknagel.de/kataloge Hello, I have a rather shabby old Brno ZG 47 in 9.3 calibre fitted with a Recknagel swivel mount; it’s just as sturdy and effective as my EAW mounts. On this Brno, I also have a Recknagel trigger assembly – it’s perfect for a trigger pull of 1.2 kg when...

    At the range with 9.3x64 Voere 2165

    Hello, Might this be of interest to you? I have several 9.3x62 calibre rifles, not 64 – I deliberately chose not to, as I don’t see the point. https://www.optics-trade.eu/en/shopby/compatibility_below-voere_2165.html?___store=en&___from_store=int Otherwise, I shoot for Europe and, if...

    8x68S owner's opinions

    Hello, it’s an excellent calibre. I’m European, but I’ve found the 9.3×62 to be better for ranges from 0 to 250–300 metres, and the .338 for ranges from 200 to 450 metres. I find that the 8×68S is very sensitive to high temperatures, which can lead to overpressure; check this with your...

    Blaser R8 in 500 Jeffrey, shootability?

    The R8 rifle is the queen of marketing; as a premium modern rifle, the Sauer 505 is more reliable, though for big game hunting, a Mauser system is essential—or a high-quality over-and-under.

    9.3x62

    Je ne peux pas vous envoyer de photo du Sauer S90 car, pour des raisons de sécurité, toutes mes armes à feu sont entreposées chez deux armuriers ; je n'ai aucune arme à feu chez moi. Je vais essayer de vous en envoyer un. L'Express I est un Mathelon
